Andrzej,
This is based strictly on reading material, but I think I read it correctly. . .
You seem to be wanting to show a form with an out-process server. I believe that this is not "permitted" in such a scheme.
You should check into this aspect a little more.
Cheers,

My attempts to force it to show itself in main foxpro window by manipulating form's properties "Desktop" and "ShowWindow" failed. I got the dictionary form launched by simply "do form" issued in the custom method of server object.
